Energy

Fasken’s Global Energy Group advises energy industry clients across a wide spectrum of legal service needs. Whether you are permitting a new pipeline or constructing a new transmission line, dealing with a labour disturbance at a generating facility, filing a new application with a utilities commission, or starting an M&A process on upstream assets, our multi-disciplinary team of professionals can help you succeed.

We offer energy clients a full suite of legal services to meet their needs. We help serve permits and regulatory approvals, provide insight regarding government policy or energy markets, and guide clients through acquisitions, divestitures, financings and joint ventures.

Consultations with indigenous groups and local stakeholders are an increasing and important aspect of our work. We’ve negotiated impact benefit agreements and joint ventures, helping clients build trustworthy relationships that last from project construction to implementation and beyond.

We advise private and public companies, utilities, lenders and governments involved in every aspect of the industry, from rate regulation to production agreements to multi-year, multi-billion dollar projects. Ours is a truly global practice; the clients we serve and projects we’ve been involved with span every Canadian province, 25 countries across Africa and the Middle East, Latin America and Asia.
